I am more than capable of communicating my findings in a professional and academic manner, and I never had an issue expressing my thoughts or opinion on any subject. I have actually been selected multiple times before to develop report templates that my graduate colleagues can use as a starting point to report on their findings, and that I’m proud of as a non-native speaker.
